Being struck by lightning, why not die? Lightning volts don't kill people?

Reason: the intensity of lightning is not fixed, but also related to weather, humidity, terrain and the position of the hacked person.

If the intensity of lightning is not large, there are many obstacles near people, which can disperse part of the energy of lightning, and lightning may not kill people.

The length of lightning may be only a few hundred meters, but it may also be several kilometers long. The temperature of lightning varies from 17000 degrees Celsius to 28000 degrees Celsius. The extreme heat of lightning caused the air along the way to expand violently. Air moves very fast, so waves are formed and sounds are made.

Types of lightning:

1, linear lightning is some very bright white, pink or light blue lines, which are like a river with many branches on the map and like a winding tree hanging in the sky.

2. Most spherical lightning will appear in the bad weather of strong thunderstorm. A fireball suddenly appeared in the sky after the linear lightning. The fireball floats in the sky along a winding path, and sometimes it may stop and hang in the air.

3. Flake lightning seems to flash across the clouds. This kind of lightning may be the background light of the invisible spark discharge behind the cloud, or the diffuse light generated by the lightning in the cloud being blocked by the cloud droplets, or it may be a cluster or flickering independent discharge phenomenon appearing in the upper part of the cloud.
